Disney’s Wilderness Lodge
Nestled amongst a tranquil mini forest you’ll find the largest cabin you’ve ever seen! Imagine the Lincoln logs you used to play with as a kid! That’s the Disney’s Wilderness Lodge on a grand scale!
This multi room resort boasts rooms with some of the most tranquil views around Walt Disney World. The sights and sounds of this resort are enough to make you want to not leave and just stay here for your entire vacation!
I’m currently sitting on a rocking chair out on a deck back outside of the lobby next to a waterfall listening to a stream and the Disney water taxis in the background. You can hear their horns which brings on that sound that is so reminiscent of my childhood! From my rocking chair I am looking at two bunnies playing in the grass while little children look on and squeal. It’s such a delight and what a wonderful night! There’s a light breeze in the air and the temperatures in the very low 80s. A great summer sunset is approaching and we are enjoying this peaceful atmosphere after an amazing first class dinner at the award-winning Artist Point here at the Disney’s Wilderness Lodge.
It’s almost as if were set back into a redwood forest or somewhere in the Pacific Northwest, but certainly not in the middle of Central Florida. It also has the ability to be a relaxing location amongst the hustle bustle of Walt Disney World. When you walk into the resort through the grand entrance you’re just stunned. Your greeted with the sites and sounds of what you will know to be an amazing family vacation!
Our dinner at the Artist Point started with an a Charcuterie board of meats and accompaniments that were by far some of the best I’ve had on any Charcuterie board! In the next course we moved on to a cedar plank salmon that just left be in awe! Chef Matthew prepared an exceptional meal for us tonight. And with this second-floor view overlooking this large resort and waterfalls it’s almost as if I‘m in the Pacific Northwest. It’s so picturesque and scenic. The aromas in the restaurant are enough to get your stomach wanting more! And whatever you do, don’t forget to pair your meal with a fantastic wine!
After dinner take a stroll around the property. There’s so much to look at and so much to do! The beautifully winding pool leads into part of that waterfall and stream and there’s loads of Recreation ideas. We love to bike ride, rent some boats, play pool outside or maybe even air hockey! It’s all here at Disney’s wilderness Lodge! Even if you’re just coming out for dinner take a peek around and enjoy all the sights and animals! You’ll love it!
